Soft and Sweet

This toy doesn't have the most powerful vibrations out there, and those who like firm penetration might be left wanting more. However, for the price, can you really go wrong? The size and softness make this toy perfect for beginners, while the wonderful clitoral nubs and g-spot stimulation will surprise even experienced toy users.

The personal pleasurizer by Cal Exotics is a cute little g-spot rabbit vibrator with a wonderfully nubby pocket for your clit. It's made for dual stimulation, and it has a little bit of texture. It's perfect for beginners who might be wanting to experiment with g-spot stimulation, or for those who want to try a different yet non-intimidating texture for their clitoris. I haven't tried it anally, but it looks like it's entirely possible to use it that way. The vibrations transfer well through the material of the toy, so it seems like it could feel pretty nice.

This little pleasurizer is made of TPR, which is a soft, rubbery material that's less porous than cyberskin or jelly. It's more porous than silicone. Because the material is semi-porous and can't ever be fully disinfected, it's best to use condoms or toy covers if you want to share it. Other than that, it's hypoallergenic and contains no phthalates, so it's pretty body-safe. I noticed a slight plastic smell at first, but that disappeared after a quick wipe-down with a toy wipe (which I always do with new toys). This toy is compatible with any kind of lubricant.

TPR is super squishy and soft. You can take the insertable part and bend it any way you want, and then you can watch it bounce back when you let go. If you gently shake the toy, it wobbles kind of like jello. The insertable part is smooth, whereas the clitoral part has little nubs. The little nubs are squishy, yet they are pronounced enough that you can definitely feel them while this toy is in use. I think that the softness makes it great for beginners. The flexibility makes it very easy to insert, and the nubs are a great introduction to texture without ever being overly intense.

I personally adore the nubs on this toy. The little nubby clitoral nook was what drew me to the pleasurizer in the first place, and in that area I was not disappointed.

First things first, this little guy is definitely not for "size queens," or those who are looking for a big, thrusting toy. I'd hope you could already tell that from the pictures, though. It only goes in about three inches, and the head isn't very thick at all. With a drop of lube, it slides in and out with no effort whatsoever, and the head sits right against my g-spot while the nubs sit right against my clit. I'm very happy with how well this toy fits my body. I think this toy would be perfect for someone who's just starting out with penetration, or for someone who usually has trouble with it. This toy's small size and squishy-softness make it very manageable and comfortable for even the most difficult vagina. This also means that some more experienced or advanced toy users might be left unsatisfied, though.

In terms of aesthetics, I actually think this toy is pretty cute in its own way. The shape of the usable part reminds me of a raindrop, and while the base isn't particularly attractive, it's practical in that it makes it very easy to hold onto the toy. I wasn't particularly impressed with the pink or purple color options for the pleasurizer, but I really love the shade of blue that I got it in. The color is even brighter in real life, and it is somewhat iridescent. The color and the drop-like shape make me think of water, which is nice.

Speaking of water, this toy is waterproof, which makes it wonderful for use in the shower or bath. Though I do worry a bit about water possibly getting in through the space around the power button on the bottom. It makes me hesitate a little about submerging it completely, though it would probably be fine.

All of the vibrations are controlled by one little button on the very bottom of the toy. Pressing the button once goes to the first setting, twice goes to the second, three times goes to the third, and pressing it a fourth time turns it off. It's a pretty quiet toy, which makes it good for people living with family or roommates, or for those who have thin walls.

Honestly, the vibrations are where this toy fell short for me. It has three different speeds, all on constant vibration, and none of them impressed me all that much. The vibrations transfer surprisingly well throughout the TPR; you can feel them almost as clearly in the head as you can in the nubs. Even on its highest setting, it just isn't a large amount of power. They're just mildly buzzy. I might have liked it better if it had different functions, such as pulsing or escalating. Apparently the types of vibrations provided is the main difference between this toy and its newer upgraded platinum edition. For many extra sensitive people, this toy might have just the right amount of vibrations. However, I personally would have liked a little more.

The most difficult part of cleaning this toy is the nubs. You have to pay extra attention to make sure that you get all the tiny spaces in between them. Aside from that, it's relatively easy; all it takes is soap and water. Again, this toy is semi-porous and you can never completely sanitize it, so just keep that in mind. You can use any kind of lube with it, and there are no issues with storing it next to other toys. I would definitely recommend keeping it in some sort of pouch, however, because lint and dust cling to it like magnets. Wrapping it in lightweight fabric or a plastic baggy would probably work just fine.

The packaging for this toy is not discreet in any way. While the box doesn't have any badly photoshopped lingerie-wearing ladies printed on it (like many other toys I've seen in this price range), it is dressed with a big picture of the vibrator itself. The name of the toy is also featured in large print, along with the words "The Ultimate In Feminine Arousal!" It's a sex toy, and it doesn't try to hide it. On the back, it has all the basic information about the toy (three speeds of vibration, push button, phthalates free, etc.). Inside of the box, it comes with a little piece of paper explaining the battery information.

I'd actually been eyeing this toy for a while before I bought it. The nubs looked absolutely wonderful, and I really, really wanted to feel them. Plus, I've never had a soft, squishy toy before, and I wanted to know what it would feel like inside of me. On both of those accounts, I was very satisfied. When I first tried it out, the insertable part slid right into place. Then, those nubs hit my clit... ohh! It was exactly what I had imagined the texture would feel like, which was very, very good. Unfortunately, clicking to the highest vibration speed was still less intense than I would have liked.

This toy isn't for thrusting; I never really took it out. I basically just sort of wiggled it around to make the nubs rub against my clit over and over. That, coupled with the mild vibrations and pressure on my g-spot, was what eventually got me to climax.

For me, the vibrations themselves aren't enough to make me come; they're more of a bonus addition to the rest of the toy and what keeps everything together. The little nubs are my absolute favorite part of this toy. I can't really be too disappointed with the vibrations though, considering all of the other good things about this toy that I got for thirteen dollars.
